An odd epidemic appears across the globe: people suddenly lose one of their senses. At first, it&#39s an outbreak of loss of smell. It&#39s often presaged by a destructive temper tantrum. In this mix are a scientist and a chef - she&#39s Susan, one of a team trying to understand the epidemic; he&#39s Michael, charming and engaging. Susan and Michael begin a relationship in the middle of increasing chaos, as the loss of other senses plagues more people and as civil authorities try to maintain order. Susan&#39s voice-over reflections provide insight. Is love possible in such a changed world? Can anything make perfect sense?
